Leeds as always had transport problems train station just off city square in the town centre but the bus station is at the other end of town.
Leeds has been promished a supertram system on three seperate occasions and each time its been knocked back due to ever increasing costs the nearest leeds got was the steel posts being erected in middleton belle isle and hunslet in the mid 90's.
Since the 90's the leeds skyline as changed lots of new student acommodation lots of new office space and shopping malls leeds is now the second largest financial center outside london lots of money and redevelopment going on maybe this time leeds will get the supertram the building blocks of the so called northern powerhouse.
Wil the money be spent elseware like on type 26,31,83 warships or on new military helicopters.

The momentum is stronly on the side of Liz Truss.

The latest bribe and coming from a man who is richer than our Queen.

I wonder who will benefit the most? :hmmm:

Don't tell me that a majority of the Torie member believe this ?

Those who on Sept. 5th has to decide who shall lead the Tories after B.J.

I still believe Truss will win.

I think so too. It was this sentence:

"Rishi Sunak has said he will cut the basic rate of income tax from 20% to 16% by the end of the next parliament if he becomes prime minister."

Which made me write "Don't tell me...

For me it sounds like words from a desperate politician.

Markus

Only desperate to be the next PM

Tonight the pair (Truss and Sunak) will go head to head in a televised debate on Sky News at 8pm in front of a live audience.

I wonder what promises we will hear tonight and especially after the announcement (not an hour ago) by the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee that interest rates are rising from 1.25% to 1.75%.

Fishy Rishi has stabbed himself in the back now, the bleeding idiot doesn't know how to run a campaign never mind run the country, someone ought to sellotape his mouth shut before he makes any more cock ups like this one. Liz Truss will smack him round the head with this story and make him pay for de-levelling the country down.

Boris Johnson has no plans to introduce big tax and spending measures before he leaves office to ease the cost-of-living crisis, Downing Street has said.

Business group leader Tony Danker has urged ministers to "grip the emerging crisis", arguing it "made no sense to wait" for the next PM to arrive.

And Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland's first minister, has called for an urgent meeting with the devolved governments.

Downing Street said it recognised the public were facing "challenging times".

However, Mr Johnson's spokesman argued it would be up to his successor to make any decisions on further help.

Mr Johnson is due to leave office in early September, and No 10 said "by convention it is not for this prime minister to make major fiscal interventions during this period".

Cabinet Office minister Kit Malthouse said the government had already and was continuing to do work on cost-of-living problems.
